My solution was to migrate to Windows 10/11 Enterprise. No ads, no nothing. The LTSC versions are even better but they’re a little too barebones for my use case. Keep in mind that those SKUs cannot be activated legally but as with anything: There are ways to circumvent that issue.

Well, apparently you need to illegally use the enterprise edition to make it tolerable, so...

You make it sound as if I have to evade the police and steal it from a store lmao. It's pretty openly available and even a simple utility like RUFUS can disable all the shit in the iso itself before making it a bootable drive.

Naw man. This is a linux enthusiast sub. It's just how they are. Kinda fun to wind them up, though. XD

Still, you have to violate the TOS and forego any kind of official support to get a usable product...

Why do you even need official support for windows?
